 At Carpenter, we’ve spent

 years developing alloys thathave helped to advance

the aerospace, automotive,

consumer, industrial, medical

and power generation industries.

The result of that experience is

cleaner steels for medical implants,

superior edge retention for sharper

instruments and reliable corrosion

resistance where you need it.

Carpenter CTS™ alloys have been

used in precision blades such

as scalpels and bone saws. And

soft-magnetic alloys have been

used for a range of applications

from simple magnetic cores to

complex electronic circuitry found

in today’s sophisticated imaging

and diagnostic equipment.

The family of Carpenter BioDur®

alloys offers a range of properties

including biocompatibility and

strength for a variety of orthopedic,

cardiovascular and dental applications.BioDur alloysused for implants have

mettheexacting standards of the

 ASTM F04 and ISO 5832 series of 

specifications.

In all, Carpenter gives you one of 

the broadest ranges of specialty alloy 

materials solutions available today.
